Thought Joeys were class today. #13 Ronan Leahy is a defensive beast I believe could definitely be up for higher honours this year… Shore forwards couldn’t keep up with the physicality of the Joeys boys combined with the speed of the backs was a masterclass first half. However they took the throttle off a bit in the second half. #7 Pat Young has a heart of gold and is a very impressive and physical player. Interesting to see the scores of the others games today. Thoughts on GPS selections after today?

Was at Northbridge to watch Shore v Joeys. Joeys outclassed Shore in both backs and forwards. The Joeys forwards set the platform for their backs with physical carries and quick ball. Joeys backs were strong and fast and made metres easily and scored some classy tries. Standout players for me were Joeys (13) with his physical defence and big ball running, I’m tipping him for GPS 1s. Joeys (4) and (7) were in everything as well in attack and defence. Joeys (10) had a great kicking game and put in a excellent kick for joeys first try and as usual Joeys (15) had a great all round game, however does anyone know why he was sent off early in the match?

My thoughts:
- Sharples in 1s is surprising
- No Sekel in 1s
- Charles Cooper in 1s - rightfully so, he’s been exceptional
- Dickens in 3s is far lower than what everyone thought
- Dufficy in 1s is nice surprise but no complaints
- Payne in Whites in a little questionable
- Sharples in 1s is surprising
- No Sekel in 1s
- Charles Cooper in 1s - rightfully so, he’s been exceptional

Fowler should of been in 1s for me Oscar Jorgenson as well had done more than enough to play GPS 1s Archie Campbell on the reserves is too low for him as well.

Also think Tuniu Jorgensen should have been in one of the higher teams and Siteni should have played 1sts wing but him in 2nd's is still great

I’m sorry I still just don’t get the hype surrounding O.Jorg. Yes he is a good ballrunner but has many flaws in his game and in my opinion there are many other better options available. Thought making the 2nds was a stretch, but I won’t go any further so I don’t get crucified by the pack of joeys fanboys in this forum. I’m interested as to who you think he would replace in the 1s?

Would have thought at least 2nds

Oscar jorgensen absolutely robbed. He has played better than anyone else in that team and it makes me want to cry. However, I am looking at the positive side of things as Hwi Sharples made the 1’s. Well deserved Hwi.

Well everyone was laughing saying he was the 10 without a doubt

Very surprised at the selection of all 4 GPS teams not only from a Newington perspective but all other GPS Schools that I’ve watched over the past 4 or 5 weeks.
Congratulations to all the boys who have been selected.

Oscar would 100% be better than Perkins no disrespect to him but offers more in defence and attack as there is more to rugby than pure speed that Perkins offers

GPS selections will always be controversial. While I believe that Fowler is a great 10, I have never seen Dufficy play. And it's really hard to make a judgement so early in the season. We should all note that being in a lower GPS team has never been an obstacle to future representative honours.
Great to see two Grammar players selected from the 3rd XV competition.
Congratulations to all boys selected.
